An island without a pub, no parties, and why do people still want to go?

An island without a pub, no parties, and why do people still want to go?

There is an island in Thailand that the villagers choose to reject the chaos. This is Mak Mak, Trad Province.

No pubs, no jet skis, no car ferries.

Because the people on the island together set up the "Statute of Mak Island."

To keep this place Low Carbon.

And keep calm when going is nature yet

Very complete, live a Slow Life at its fullest.

Who really wants to stay here might be a good choice.

Has anyone ever visited Mak Island?

... Read moreถ้าใครกำลังหาเกาะที่ “หนีความวุ่นวาย” แบบจริงจัง เกาะหมาก (Koh Mak Thailand) เป็นคำตอบที่ตรงมากสำหรับเราเลยค่ะ ฟีลมันต่างจากเกาะสายปาร์ตี้อย่างเห็นได้ชัด—ที่นี่ไม่ได้มีเป้าหมายให้คนมาเที่ยวแบบเสียงดังหรือกิจกรรมแรง ๆ แต่เป็นเกาะที่ตั้งใจรักษาความสงบและความเป็นธรรมชาติไว้ ผ่านสิ่งที่คนบนเกาะช่วยกันทำอย่าง “ธรรมนูญเกาะหมาก” แนว Low Carbon สิ่งที่ชอบคือบรรยากาศมันพาให้ใช้ชีวิตช้าลงแบบอัตโนมัติ ตื่นมาก็เดินเล่นริมทะเล นั่งชิลอยู่ริมหาดทราย อ่านหนังสือ หรือแค่ฟังเสียงคลื่นก็รู้สึกคุ้มแล้ว ใครชอบกิจกรรมเบา ๆ อย่างเล่นโยคะตอนเช้า (หน้าหาดหรือที่พัก) ก็เข้ากับเกาะนี้มาก เพราะอากาศดีและเงียบจริง อีกไฮไลต์ที่เราอยากแนะนำคือ “จุดดูพระอาทิตย์ตก” แถวสะพานไม้ที่มี Blue Pearl Bar (บลู เพิร์ล บาร์) เป็นบาร์กลางทะเล บรรยากาศดีมาก ๆ โดยเฉพาะช่วงเย็น แสงส้มตกบนผิวน้ำคือสวยแบบไม่ต้องแต่งรูปเยอะ เหมาะทั้งไปนั่งชิล ถ่ายรูป หรือพาเพื่อนไปนั่งคุยกันยาว ๆ ถ้ามีเวลาเพิ่ม ลองแวะ “เกาะขาม” ด้วยนะคะ อยู่ใกล้เกาะหมากมาก น้ำใสและหาดสวยแบบเรียบร้อย บางช่วงถ้าน้ำค่อนข้างนิ่ง สามารถพายคายักข้ามไปได้ (แต่เช็กสภาพอากาศ/กระแสน้ำก่อนเพื่อความปลอดภัย) หรือจะไปกับทัวร์เรือสั้น ๆ ก็ง่าย เรื่องการเดินทาง หลายคนชอบเทียบกับเส้นทางไปเกาะกูดที่มีสปีดโบ๊ต (speed boat Koh Kood) แต่เกาะหมากจะได้ฟีล “ไม่รีบ” มากกว่า แนะนำให้วางแผนเวลาเผื่อ ๆ แล้วเลือกช่วงวันที่อยากพักจริง ๆ ไม่แน่นเกิน จะยิ่งสัมผัสความสงบได้เต็มที่ สรุปเลย ถ้าเป้าหมายทริปนี้คือพักผ่อน สมองโล่ง ๆ ไม่ต้องตารางแน่น เกาะหมากคือเกาะที่ไปแล้วรู้สึกเหมือนได้ชาร์จแบตกลับมาจริง ๆ
